.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBpicl_set_propval()\fR function sets the value of the property specified
by the handle \fIproph\fR to the value contained in the buffer \fIvalbuf\fR.
The argument \fInbytes\fR specifies the size of the buffer \fIvalbuf\fR.
.sp
.LP
The \fBpicl_set_propval_by_name()\fR function sets the value of the property
named \fIpname\fR of the node specified by the handle \fInodeh\fR to the value
contained in the buffer \fIvalbuf\fR. The argument \fInbytes\fR specifies the
size of the buffer \fIvalbuf\fR.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.sp
.LP
Upon successful completion, \fB0\fR is returned. On failure, a non-negative
integer is returned to indicate an error.
.sp
.LP
\fBPICL_PERMDENIED\fR is returned if the client does not have sufficient
permission to access the property.
.sp
.LP
\fBPICL_STALEHANDLE\fR is returned if the handle is no longer valid. This
occurs if the PICL tree was refreshed or reinitialized.
.sp
.LP
\fBPICL_INVALIDHANDLE\fR is returned if the specified handle never existed.
This error may be returned for a previously valid handle if the daemon was
brought down and restarted. When this occurs a client must revalidate any saved
handles.
